4.12.1 Introduction

The Encounter Event RMIM models information about an encounter that is ongoing or has already happened. An Encounter Event is an act used for the registration, admission, discharge, and transfer of patients. This may be an inpatient, ambulatory, emergency, home health, field or virtual encounter, with participating staff members or physicians, service delivery locations, medical services, responsible health care facilities, and so on.

The Encounter Event Act includes attributes related to the encounter. Those attributes that are not part of the Encounter Act are handled via act relationships to administrative observations. The Encounter Event has a required patient participation and several optional staff member participations. There are also act relationships to the diagnoses and allergies entered as part of the registration process.

It includes a mapping of the HL7 v2.4 IN1 insurance segment representing detailed patient coverage information relevant to the encounter in a separate A_Insurance universal CMET.

HDR Version 7 Encounter Event has been modified to be in close alignment with the HL7 DSTU Encounter Event.
